Default White LT1 WS6, Charcoal Z06s vs Machined ROH Snypers

The current Z06s...


The ROH Snypers I have sitting around...


Both wheels are 17x9s. I've got both sets of wheels but I'd have to swap the tires from the Z06s over to the Snypers. Right now I'm on the fence on if its worth it or not. Thoughts?

And my old Trans Am for reference to show the Snypers in full effect and not some 'chop job (no way Z06s would have looked better on this car than the Snypers ever did IMO, but the Ruff 278s I had on it before I sold it looked awesome in a split 5 spoke style but they had massive lip on them).

Negative on selling either set. Whichever set I dont use my buddy that bought my old Trans Am is going to use for his autocross wheels in exchange for his XBOX and some games.

Haha, completely split. Which is kind of how I feel. The one thing the Snypers have going for them is that not every F-Body you see is going to have them on there so that puts alot of points towards the Snypers to me. Still dont know though.

z06. The wheels look more aggressive, larger, more muscle-y. The Snypers don't work on an LT1 car because the front end of the cars is more sleek and thinner. Snypers on an LT1 with its thin front make the car look anorexic. This is not as apparent on LS1 cars because the front ends are much more bulky, curvy.

Snypers 100%

Z06s look like some kind of tuner wheel to me.

That costs extra money and when these tires wear out I'll be upgrading to 18" Ruff 278s so right now its not an option.
